What a fast first term it has been for Class 1/2R. We have all settled beautifully into our new class and have been learning lots of new things over the past few weeks.
Here are a few snap shots of our learning this term.
In Topic we have been learning about the 5 senses, touch, taste, hear, see and smell.
Plan-Do-Review
We can choose where we are going to play and learn, do the activities and then talk about and review the learning that has taken place. The past few weeks our choices have been: Transient Art - making ourselves using lots of different bits and pieces, Lego building, Tough-spot, Topic Books, Table Top Games, Arts and Crafts.
We have been using Numicon in our Maths, learning numbers, practicing number formation, ordering the Numicon Shapes, and making up our own adding stories.
We have been learning and revising the phonic sounds s,a,t,i,p,n.
We went outside the back playground to look for things beginning with all the letters in the alphabet, do you know which letter these things begin with?
Some of the Primary Two's are practicing Tricky Words, it is not possible to sound these words out so we need lots of practice to learn them, today we were splatting the words!
Practicing spelling "ee"
Fine Motor Skills and Writing.
We have been learning to write a recount, this tells about
something that has happened in the past. We wrote about a time we hurt ourselves, a time we went on holiday and a time we had fun learning in Class 1/2R.
